14 The Canadian Statesman. Bowmanville, July 12, 11)119 Atom Selects Win Championship at Port Hope Soccer Tournament Elizabeth ville The Darlington Youth Soccer League Atom Selects travelled to Port Hope on June 18,19,1989, to participate participate in their annual Select tournament. Their first game was against Woburn, with Darlington Darlington coming out as 4-0 winners. Second game against Leaside ended 2-1 in favor of Darlington and success continued when Darlington downed Port Hope 6-2 in the third game. The championship game featured Darlington against North Toronto, with Darlington winning 6-2 to take the title. This team has consistently done well in tournament tournament play over the past three years, but has come up Council's Salaries How can our councillors decide what they are worth and will be worth in three years' time after only six months in office? When are our municipal politicians going going to accept their political responsibility, as our school board trustees do and decide salary increases at the END of their term for the office holders in the next term? This would eliminate any embarrassment or preoccupation preoccupation with "how much can we take the taxpayers for this time?" from the newly elected and they could get on with learning their new job and thus start earning their salary. . Our system for determining determining the councillors' total annual annual salary is UNFAIR. At the end of this term, November 1991 - local councillors councillors will receive a total salary of $15,054 and pay income income tax on $10,036.00 Regional Regional Councillors will receive receive a total salary, without further increases from Region, Region, of $34,054.00 and pay income tax on $22,703.00. The Mayor's total salary, without ' further increases from Region will be $52,248.00 and the Mayor will pay income tax on $38,166.00. Local councillors are the first guys on the public firing firing line ... are the Regional councillors worth over double double the local councillors' rate of pay? I say NO. The Mayor should spend time being the Mayor of the Town of Newcastle Newcastle and act only as a voting voting observer on Regional Council. The Mayor's salary is too much if the Mayor is busy on Regional committees, committees, out of town for meetings, meetings, seminars and out of country trips. We need a full time Mayor. Send a member of council or a qualified member of staff to these meetings, trips etc. and have them bring a comprehensive report back to the Mayor, Council and. taxpayers for perusal and decisions. As all of the salaries, Town and Region are paid from our tax dollars, may I suggest the system be changed. The Town to pay the local councillors MORE, the Regional councillors and Mayor LESS. Put the local councillors up to $20,000 per year. ■ Regional councillors down to $30,000 per year (Town $11,000.00 plus Region Region $19,000) A part time Mayor down to $39,000 per year (Town $20,000 plus Region Region $19,000) or a full time Mayor down to $44,000 per year (Town $25,000 plus Region Region $19,000.00). After the council has served their three year term they should know what the jobs entail and what they are worth. This council should have only decided what increases council should be given for the years 1992, 93 and 94, and been aware of the inflation rate before any raises in sal my were considered for either council members or town staff. Sincerely, Lorraine Lover. short in the finals.' Their success this time was due to added discipline through the entire team, from the coaching staff to each and every player.
